In talking with people who don't own any cryptocoins, I've sometimes been using the term "Bitcoin" to mean all cryptocoins in general, and the community surrounding them. i.e., if I traded Litecoin for Terracoin today, and gained, I might say "I made some bitcoin today."
A better term is probably 'coin or cryptocoin, but I'm liking the idea of genericizing the term. I'm sure it would royally piss some people off.
Personally I like the term cryptocoin, or just 'coin if you're in knowledgable company.A better term is probably 'coin or cryptocoin, but I'm liking the idea of genericizing the term. I'm sure it would royally piss some people off.
I did read Mathcoin (math based coin) in a news article, which is interesting because it's short and laypeople may not know what crypto is.
